a lot of youtube videos that give different angles to making the straps..the key is the lug size fitting snug on the watch and the buckle fit... cutting, a little skiving some sewing and edge finishing... it is a lot of fun and rewarding with the final product.. -
this is my third watch strap...cut out from Blackriverlaser templates..lined with pigskin horween leather sewn with my new Techsew 2750 pro..thanks Ron for getting me going on that..

Would you be willing to draw up a simple wallet if I send it to you. I will have clicker does made from it?

I made a mistake not asking for the most common watch strap size. Would it be hard to make a 20mm tapering to 18 mm strap just like the ones you made last week. What program did you use? I could try to do it myself. Sorry but I didn't know that the die maker would not alter anything that you send them. Thanks in advance for your consideration. Greg

the taper is always tricky...now it should be easy I have clicker dies ordered for these and can't wait to get clicking.. I will have a weaver manual clicker press soon as well.....

Wow. Those look great. I will print them out and get on it. Thank you so much! I hope I can return the favor some day.

sorry...I left that out...110 mm will work..as long as the ends stay a constant width for a distance it gives me wiggle room to fold over where I want and make it longer or shorter the holes are 7mm apart center to center...thanks again with that in mind the strap with the holes should be 140mm before folded over not 130..sorry

I recently started making watch straps and would like to have some clicker dies made but I need some patterns of tapered watch straps to send in to get them made. I think if I make them myself that the dies may not come out as nice as I want. Can anyone help? thank you for your consideration
